Packing Up - Chapter 32
Roberts POV:
John dropped us back at school, but he walked us inside so we wouldn't get in trouble. The rest of the hours in suspension were horrible, but eventually we made it, the final bell of the day ringing at last.
"Alright, you kids are free to go." the teacher told us, grabbing his own belongings and walking out the door.
We all immediately bolted outside, excited to head to Ross' house to pack up my stuff. Until—
"Crap, I forgot I have to go to that business class." Roy complained.
We all frowned. "Dude, why'd you agree to take some dumb business class?" Ross questioned.
"Well it's better than being grounded! I'll meet you guys in a bit, classes I think are only a half hour." he explained, waving bye to us before running back inside.
Me and Ross began to make our way to his house, we shared my coat and held hands to keep warm. I teased him the whole way about how he shouldn't have made fun of my coat and bundled up like I did.
When we finally reached Ross' house, we noticed Ross' Dad's car was parked in the garage, which made Ross' face instantly light up. He really looks up to him. Ross quickly unlocked the door and went to the living room, and there on the couch was his dad cuddling with Jaune.
"Ross, hey!" Aaron greeted, standing up from the couch to hug Ross and ruffle his head. "How are you buddy?"
"I'm good! How was your trip?"
"It was awesome, and I brought back some stuff for you and your friends."
Ross smiled as Aaron handed him a big bag of goodies.
"And how are you, Robert?" Aaron asked.
"I'm good!" I happily answered.
"Good to hear," he turned to Ross. "Your aunt and uncle are coming over with your cousin so be ready."
"When are they leaving? I was gonna have a sleepover at Robert's today."
"Around 7 so you should be fine. Now why don't you boys head upstairs?"
Ross nodded and began to walk upstairs, I was about to follow him until Aaron stopped me. "You're dating my son?" he asked, his tone suddenly turning serious.
"Aaron!!" Jaune shouted.
I immediately turned flustered. "U-um, yes sir." I stuttered.
He stared at me some more until suddenly his demeanor turned even more serious if possible, I felt sweat drip down my cheek.
"Aaron! Stop scaring him and come sit down!" Jaune yelled from the couch. "Robert, go upstairs."
"Nicetalkingtoyousir!" I blurted out before bolting upstairs.
Ross was scrolling through his phone on his bed when I walked into the room, when he realized I was there he stood up and threw his phone on the bed.
"What'd my Dad tell you?" he asked with a giggle.
"Dude, your Dad is freaking scary. He asked if we were dating and just stared at me with a serious face." I answered as I shut the door behind me.
Ross burst out laughing. "Well, that's my dad! Now let's go through this bag."
I smiled and shook my hands in excitement as Ross spilled the contents of the bag onto the bed. It was mostly snacks and pins with rock bands on them. But there was also a shirt for each of us, including Roy which was cool.
"I guess we'll just split the snacks and pins between the three of us?" I suggested.
"Sounds good!"
We quickly split everything evenly into three groups and set them to the side.
"Should we start packing now?" I asked.
"Ehh, let's just wait for Roy." Ross answered, plopping back down on his bed.
I plopped down next to him. "So what do you wanna do?"
"..."
"..."
"...Wanna kiss?"
"Woah— I mean okay!"
We both turned to look at eachother, scooted closer, and whimsically pressed our lips together. We both put our hands on each other's cheeks and kissed for a while while giggling.. until eventually we heard the door burst open.
"This door stays— Oh my god!!!"
Me and Ross' eyes shot open mid-kiss and quickly jumped away from each other. Of course it was Aaorn, he's so going to kill me.
"D-dad we—!"
"Quiet!" he yelled. "The door stays open," he looked at me with that same serious face from before. "And absolutely no kissing."
"What?! Dad you can't—!"
"No kissing!" he yelled again before heading back downstairs.
Me and Ross let out a sigh. "Sorry." Ross apologized.
"What? Why are you apologizing?" I asked with a chuckle.
"I don't know, it was my idea to kiss?"
"Yeah, but who knew your Dad was going to burst through the door."
"I guess."
"And plus, when we get to my house I'm sure we could head back to smooch town again."
Me and Ross burst out in laughter before we both stood up again.
"Let's start packing, Roy will be here soon." I suggested.
Ross nodded in agreement and we both started taking stuff out of my dresser and folding.
Ross' POV:
"Ross! You're aunt, uncle, and cousin are here, come say hi!" Mom shouted from downstairs.
"Okay!" I folded the shirt I had in my hand and put it to the side before turning to Robert. "I'll be back."
Robert gave me a thumbs up and I quickly started heading downstairs. And there standing at the doorway were my aunt, uncle, and cousin, Morgana. I have another cousin too but he's not here, for some reason. My aunt saw me standing on the stairs and smiled.
"Ross! How are you?" she asked.
I approached and let her give me a hug. "I'm good, and you?"
"I'm doing great!" she looked at my hair. "Oh, you dyed your hair black! When'd you do that?"
"Last year."
"Oh well it suits you really well!"
"Thanks."
"Ross," my mom called. "Why don't you take Morgana to your room?"
I sighed. "Okay."
I looked towards Morgana and gestured for her to follow. As I was about to head upstairs with her I heard someone yell from the door,
"I'm here!"
Me and Morgana looked behind to see who it was, and it was Roy. He let himself inside and began to make his way towards me, but then he froze, staring at something. Or someone.
"What are you looking at?" Morgana suddenly asked sternly.
Roy blinked hard. "Uh— Your ugly face!" he snapped, running up the stairs to stand beside me.
Morgana rolled her eyes and we all continued our way upstairs.
Robert was still taking clothes out from his dresser and folding when we walked in. Roy snuck behind him and grabbed his shoulders to scare him, which made him yelp.
"You jerk!" he yelled, giving Roy a playful punch to the shoulder before looking towards Morgana. "Oh, hi!" He excitedly approached her and held out his hand. "I'm Robert, you?"
I almost burst out laughing at their height difference, Robert looked like a giant compared to her.
"Morgana." she responded, taking Robert's hand and shaking.
"Nice to meet you," he said before turning back to me and Roy. "Can you guys finish doing my dresser while I get my stuff from the bathroom?"
I gave Robert a thumbs up and with that he left. Me and Roy continued what Robert was doing, I told Morgana that she could just chill at my desk. While we were folding clothes I kept noticing through the glimpse of my eye that Roy kept taking glances at Morgana.
"Roy come with me real quick." I said, gesturing for him to follow me out to the hallway. Once we were out I shut the door behind us so Morgana wouldn't hear us talk. "Why the hell do you keep looking at my cousin?"
"What?! That's your cousin?! Hm.."
"Roy answer the question!"
"Uh, I don't know."
"Roy, you better not mess with her."
"What?! I wasn't even thinking about bothering her."
"Then why do you keep—"
I noticed a slight pink tint on Roy's cheeks, which made me realize what was going on. "Oh my god."
"What?!"
"...Why don't you go help Robert in the bathroom?"
"Why? I don't wan—"
"GO!"
Roy flinched and quickly ran to the bathroom. I let out a sigh of relief and went back into my room, finishing the rest of what was in the dresser.
"What's that little dude's name?" Morgana suddenly asked.
No, no, no. "Why?" I asked.
"Just curious." she responded.
"...Roy." I hesitantly answered.
Morgana nodded and went back on her phone.
After about ten minutes Roy and Robert came back with a bag of Robert's stuff. I took Robert's other bag from my closet and we all started stuffing clothes inside. We finished after probably two minutes and sat down on my bed. We were finally done packing.
